Abstract

A sprayable wash-and-wax composition which includes biodegradable surfactants and water repelling sealants. The sprayable composition preferably is packaged in an aerosol can and is dispensed as a foamed composition onto the car surface to be clean. The foamed composition is thereafter wiped from the car surface to produce a cleaned surface which is then buffed to a high gloss.

Claims (14)

1. A sprayable wash-and-wax composition consisting of an aqueous emulsion of saturated fatty acid, a water miscible lower aliphatic secondary amine, a high viscosity silicone fluid, a standard viscosity silicone fluid, a hydrocarbon fluid, a wax, and a surfactant.

2. The sprayable wash-and-wax composition in accordance with claim 1 wherein the lower aliphatic secondary amine in morpholine.

3. The sprayable wash-and-wax composition in accordance with claim 1 wherein the high viscosity silicone fluid has a viscosity of about 10,000 centistokes at 25° C. and the standard viscosity silicone fluid has a viscosity of about 350 centistokes at 25° C.

4. The sprayable wash-and-wax composition in accordance with claim 1 and having a solids content of about 1 percent by weight.

5. A sprayable wash-and-wax composition in a metal aerosol can pressurized with a propellant the composition consisting of an aqueous emulsion of saturated fatty acid, a water miscible lower aliphatic secondary amine, a high viscosity silicone fluid, a standard viscosity silicone fluid, a hydrocarbon fluid, a wax, a surfactant, and about 0.1 to about 0.2 weight percent ammonium hydroxide based on the weight of the composition.

6. The sprayable wash-and-wax composition in accordance with claim 1 wherein the surfactant is sodium lauroyl sarcosinate.

7. The sprayable wash-and-wax composition in accordance with claim 1 wherein the wax is a carnauba wax emulsion.
